Orca off Criccieth
Attention North Wales RIBbers.....great sighting /picture from the Whales in Wales blog...

http://whaleswales.blogspot.com/2010...criccieth.html

Keep your eyes peeled....

Incidentally, the 'fish' it's firing out the water is thought to be a Porpoise or yearling seal...

I missed one which was off Cardigan Island last year...gutted

maybe that's him in his SR4 being chucked about by the Orca! Best call Jono Garton out to go and rescue him, he'd love to go a rescue a SR.
